Vratislav Holub The WWDC21 developer conference is just a few days away. Already on Monday, June 7, Apple will present its new operating systems to the world, which will once again bring some news. Although last year we received a major update in the form of macOS 11 Big Sur, which brought a design change and a number of interesting functions, I still miss something in the system. Here are 5 features I want from macOS 12.

Adam Kos Volume mixer
If I had to pick just one feature that I miss the most in macOS, it would definitely be the volume mixer. The latter has been an elementary part of the competing Windows system for several years (since 2006). And to be honest about it, I don't see a single reason why Macy can't do something so basic. In addition, it is often an incomprehensible and terribly annoying shortcoming, for example during calls when we are playing a video at the same time, we have songs playing and so on.
At the same time, last year's macOS 11 Big Sur brought a relatively successful Control Center. I can imagine that right here it would be enough for us to open the sound tab to get to the mixer itself. If its absence bothers you, you can try it Background Music application. This is a great alternative.
Time Machine combined with the Cloud
There are two ways to back up your iPhone. Either save backups directly to your Mac/PC, or let your phone automatically back up to iCloud. But why do we still not have this option in the case of our Mac computers? Many apple growers ask themselves the same question and foreign websites also mention it. Macs can be backed up using the fairly solid Time Machine application, which stores backups on, for example, an external drive or NAS. Personally, I would welcome the possibility of cloud storage in this program, while I would leave the choice of which cloud service it will be up to the apple seller.

Health
I'm the type of person who spends more time on a Mac than with an iPhone in hand. I only use the phone when I absolutely need it, but I handle everything else via the Mac. I believe that there are a lot of other users in the same group who could benefit from the arrival of native Zdraví on Apple computers. If Apple prepared the application in this way and endowed it with a simple design, I can imagine that I would gladly visit it from time to time and go through all the data.

Widgets
Introduced last year, iOS 14 brought with it an interesting novelty in the form of widgets, thanks to which we can finally place them on the desktop and keep them in sight. I myself did not use widgets as such before, as their display in the Today tab simply did not suit me and I could easily do without them. But as soon as this new option came out, I liked it quite quickly and until now I keep track of things like the weather, the battery status of my products and fitness through widgets on the desktop every day. Almost immediately I realized then that I needed the same feature on my Mac.
Reliability
Of course, I must not forget something here that I long for every year. I would very much like to see 12% reliability and functionality from macOS 100, without unnecessary problems and stupid errors. If Apple didn't bring a single new thing, but instead gave us a top-notch system that we can rely on in any situation, that would mean more to me than if they packed X more features into it. I would trade the previous points for this one without hesitation.
